This week for Morning Glory Milly and her dad celebrate thier birthdays in the only way they know how - playing tunes of course! Lots of mean tracks, lots of vinyl is spun, and lots of fun is had.
Beginning with Pavement and ending on Julia Jacklin, a very Lucia Morning Glory this week. Morgan Flowers plays for Fancy New Band thanks to NZ on Air Music.
On today's morning glory, Sam brings you a calming selection of moody, ambient sounds to say goodbye to summer, but also welcome in the cosier months. The show begins with some Celtic folk – from Huw Mark Bennet (Wales), John Martyn (England), and Daisy Rickman (Cornwall). We later work our way through the electronic side of things with a Nabihah Iqbal remix. See you all next time, ka kite!
Today's mix starts off with some Wau Wau Collectif – a Senegalese group producing some spacey, folky cuts (we revisit Wau Wau later in the show). later on – some great ambience courtesy of Angus Mills, rRoxymore, Vegyn and more! You can find the show's Spotify playlist here.
Today on Morning Glory, Milly becomes the number one hypeman for the bRave 2.0 pulling out the club cult classics as well as showcasing our amazing DJs who will be playing on the night. It's a full-blown RAVE CAVE this morning so get ready to get amped!
Today's show takes a spacey, jangly start – with a recent find by April Magazine, 'Lost', then some psychedlic, krautrock and acid jazz – à la Alice Coltrane. We finish off the show on the CDJs with various dub techno and deep house cuts, before the remix of the day. See you next time, ka kite!
